Santa knows if you've been naughty or nice. Clearly, these folks missed that memo. (Names have been changed).

Closet Case

Closet Case

I had Thanksgiving dinner at my boyfriend's sister's house. While everyone else was watching football, we decided to focus on another type of scoring. We went at it in the coat closet near the front door and broke hangers and knocked down coats in the process. It was so hot, though. Later, my sister-in-law noticed the mess and asked us about it. We tried blaming my 5-year-old nephew, who is occasionally naughty, but he just pointed the finger back at us. "I saw them go in there! They made the big mess!" Not the proudest moment in my life.

My college girlfriend invited me over for Christmas, and her superconservative Mexican family, of course, made me stay in the guest room. I snuck into her room early on Christmas morning, and in midcoitus, her mother banged on the door. "Mija, come down! The Muppet Show is on! It's the Christmas special!" Before I had a chance to grab my clothes, she burst in, only to find me naked two feet away from her, my erection waving at her in misplaced excitement. Christmas dinner was an awkward, solemn affair. The Muppets have never meant the same to me since.
